The sudden outbreak of the new crown epidemic in 2020 not only caused thousands of deaths, but also caused a more serious blow to our economy. Fortunately, our country took timely measures to prevent the epidemic, and after a concerted effort by all the people of the country, the epidemic was finally successfully controlled. In our fight against the epidemic period, the rest of the world has also one after another outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the number of infected people rose sharply, especially in the United States and India for the most serious.
At the end of April this year, a ? local government stops oxygen trucks? story got the world's attention. The main cause of this was a growing oxygen shortage due to a new outbreak of an epidemic that has nearly overwhelmed India's healthcare system. Due to the high demand and oversupply, many oxygen plants have been overwhelmed and have had to focus on delivering oxygen to central cities first. This has left many small areas without adequate supplies of oxygen, so in order to get more oxygen supplies, some local governments in India have begun to block oxygen trucks crossing the border in their localities.
Behind the incident is also highlighting the severity of the epidemic in India, so how serious is the epidemic in India so far?
1. Record-breaking number of new patients diagnosed in a single day. In early April 2021, the number of confirmed cases in India in a single day exceeded the 100,000 mark. on April 15, 2021, exceeded the 200,000 mark. on April 20, 2021, set a record for the highest increase in a single day ?300,000 cases. By April 27, 2021, India had crossed the 400,000 mark in terms of confirmed cases in a single day.
2. Second highest cumulative number of patients diagnosed. Till April 27, India had a cumulative total of 17,636,307 confirmed cases and was maintaining a rate of nearly 400,000 new cases per day.
3. Surge in deaths. On one day, April 26, there were 2,263 new deaths in India, and in one week, an average of more than 1,600 people died every day, which translates into more than 66 deaths every hour. The cumulative death toll is more than 180,000 people. The surge in deaths has caused the gas and wood stoves in the crematoriums in Gujarat, India, to overrun, and their metal parts have begun to melt, and in the end, even the cremation ovens in the crematoriums have burned out.
India's very limited health care and the government's difficulty in organizing an effective form of resistance to the epidemic made it difficult to treat the new crowns and prevent and treat the disease. Therefore, after the second outbreak of the epidemic, the number of diagnosed patients in India will surge. If the Indian government is not able to take effective measures, then the epidemic will lose a large number of people in India, the economy will also appear to regress.
